I'm not sure I understand. Are these sites paying with cryptocurrencies or is the content delivery based on blockchains? The article is a bit vague about this.

- Jyaif 9y agoThe article is shit, that's for sure. Only the payment is via cryptocurrency. The content delivery is as centralized as ever, so this does not change anything wrt to "privacy concerns, censorship".
- DalasNoin 9y agoIt uses IPFS for hosting, IPFS stores hashes on a blockchain. IPFS is according to wikipedia a distributed file system.
- maxencecornet 9y ago> paying with cryptocurrencies or is the content delivery based on blockchains Both "Because of the decentralized nature of IPFS and the STEEM blockchain, D.Tube is not able to censor videos, nor enforce guidelines. Only the users can censor it, through the power of their upvotes and downvotes."
- Jyaif 9y agoVideos are distributed by http://d.tube http://d.tube, and hosted on http://ipfs.io http://ipfs.io, so obviously that's a lie.
- maxencecornet 9y agoThis was literally their description on /r/Dtube You are probably right, their wording is pretty confusing, with that part : "[...]and the STEEM blockchain"
